It is one of the most popular and requested cosmetic surgeries. There are many techniques or methods for tightening the face and neck. What is the most appropriate method?
What is a facelift?
Despite the differences in facelift techniques, the desired result is the same: facelift and wrinkle removal. It is a medical intervention that works to eliminate sagging skin (droopiness) in the face and neck area due to aging.
Facelift or neck lift?
It's essential to make the right choice before undergoing surgery. The sagging area must be identified first. Is it the neck, cheeks, or jaw? After answering these questions, the correct area can be selected. You can also consult a specialist to help you make the right decision.
Superficial facelift
It is a superficial or limited face or neck lift technique. This technique does not require the removal of a large amount of excess tissue from the area. It is also suitable for cases of first-degree sagging of the face and neck. It can be performed at the onset of aging.
Side effects
There are some side effects that a facelift can cause, which can be controlled through medication or surgery. These are considered rare.
Which includes the following:
- Hematoma: This is one of the most common symptoms that can occur after a facelift. It can be controlled through surgical intervention to minimize the bleeding affecting other tissues.
- Scars: These are permanent scars, but they can be hidden.
- Nerve injury: The nerves in the area can be temporarily or permanently affected.
- As for the rest of the side effects, they are the same as those of other surgical techniques.
